-Get a new job. Not just any job, a job that I actually ENJOY, one
that’s commensurate with
my education.
-Buy a house. Technically, this process was started in 2012 but
since we haven’t closed yet I’m still adding it to my list.
-Join a dance class. This is something I’ve wanted to do for
quite awhile now but I’ve been putting it off since I don’t have much
disposable income right now. I keep telling myself that will be one of the
first things I do when I get a new job.
-Start an IRA. Also hinges quite a bit on the new job thing.
-Grow my jewelry business. I would love nothing more than to
some day be able to work from home solely making jewelry for a living.
-Clean the clutter out of my life. Beginning with household
clutter. I think moving will help this process. The hardest part of this
process will most definitely be my closet clutter. I’m one of those people that
keep things forever thinking that maybe someday I’ll want that item. I’m making
it my new priority that if something in my closet doesn’t make me feel awesome
when I wear it, its gotta go.
-Revamp my wardrobe. Along with cleaning out the clutter, the
pieces that make the cut to stay I want to use as the basis for building my new
wardrobe. During the second part of 2012 I’ve done much better about not
compulsively shopping (VERY hard to do when you work with clothes everyday). Along
with continuing this ‘edited’ way of shopping the items I do buy MUST fit
within my new wardrobe parameters.
-Read more. I feel like I’m not as smart as I used to be. I know
it sounds silly but when I think about it, when I was still in school I was
required to read and I learned new things (imagine that!). Being done with
school, doing the same job, I’m not learning anything. I feel like my brain is turning
to mush and that must stop NOW.
-Reclaim my love of music. Music used to be such a HUGE part of
my life it makes me sad to think about how much of a backseat it’s taken.
On top of these few resolutions I'm going to try and put together a 'Things I Am Thankful for in 2013' journal. It will be my version of this little gem I stumbled upon probably on Pinterest.
Hopefully I'll be able to accomplish everything this year!
